UIWebView loading from Sqlite3

I have an NSString variable 'body' that I am populating from sqlite3. The string is formatted with '\n' and '\t' such that when printed in NSLog it looks like

gagan

I am trying to load this string into a UIWebView and still preserve all the formatting for which I browsed and found out this.

NSString *body contains the above string with all the formatting.

NSData* data=[body dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

 if (data) {  
[webView loadData:data MIMEType:@"text/html" textEncodingName:@"UTF-8" baseURL:nil];  
       }

But I see in the UIWebView the formatting is not preserved and it turns up like this:

Can anyone come to my rescue?

maybe you should add the p tag around your string and a br at the end of each line:

<p>
gagan<br/>

you should use something like this before encoding in UTF8:

body = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"<p>%@</p>", body];
body = [body stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"\n" withString:@"<br/>\n"];
